This semester we'll be doing four projects that will be integrated into the fifth and final project. Each of these four projects is completed to a level of your own discretion and will be graded on a pass/fail metric given you meet the following requirements:

• Proper sheet format, numbering, title block etc.

• Isometric view

• Additional information

  • Exploded views for assemblies

  • Flat pattern view for sheet metal

  • Bill of Materials (BOM) Table for assemblies

Special exceptions may be given that you can model something of comparable complexity instead of the given "Outlet Fixture"

Learning Goals:

• Sketch from image

  • Reference sketches to get you started

• Caliper Use

  • How to measure parts and how does it differ from spec dims

• Industry Specification Lookup

  • NEMA

• Treehouse

  • Top level design and layout

• Configurations

  • Different Country Types

• Assemblies

• Sheet Metal

  • Stamps & Flat Patterns, Progressive Dies

• Molded Parts

  • Design mold for each injection-molded component

• Screw Design

• Appearances

  • Mostly white, black, green, gold, silver etc.

The purpose of these projects is to obtain a physical model and design it based upon your measurements. Therefore it's critical that you obtain not only a specimen, but a means to measure:

• Receptacle

• Caliper

• Faceplate

OPTIONAL:

• Switch

• GFCI

• Door Knob
